The Blossoms at Mountain View Rehab & Nursing Center

ReviewerFY#0516

My dad has been in a place called The Blossoms at Mountain View Rehab & Nursing Center since November. It's a skilled nursing facility. He needed a place quickly. We had sent him to a rehab psychiatric place and when he came out, I had tried to look at the area and ended up with this place. It was the only place that was kind of close locally. The people here also readily accepted him. It was easily accessible locally and there wasn't any problem getting in to see him if we needed to. They had him doing physical therapy once a day and he did some group activities, but not a whole lot of it. I do think they try to do some activities of some sort. It's a little bit of an older building. They have a small gym and a therapy room. The lobby also has a place where they can play games if they want and it has a fireplace up there. The place is not super modern.

This nursing home is located in the Ozark Mountains. The facility is small and personal. The care provided was excellent until the time of my relatives death. She was taken care of for over 20 years in this facility. There is a game room for family to gather and enjoy board games or to sit around a piano and sing. The staff is more than helpful, they easily become your friends. You can enjoy sitting outside on the many patios under the trees looking out over a garden. The town itself is the folk music capital of the world and there is always live music on friday, saturday, and sunday nights. These local musicians will even come to the nursing home to play. The only downside to living here is the cold winters, but the building is warm and the staff will always help a healthy willing patient outside that might want to enjoy the winter snows. The beautiful snow lies soft on the trees and makes a very beautiful scene from the many windows in the sitting rooms. There is also a van that will take able patients out on town or to specialized medical facilities as needed.
